Entanglement in nuclear quadrupole resonance G.B. Furman Physics Department Ben Gurion University Beer Sheva, Israel OUTLINE 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Some history Definition of entangled state Entanglement of two dipolar coupling spins ½ Entanglement of a single spin 3/2 Conclusions • Quantum entanglement is at the heart of the EPR paradox that was developed by Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky, and Nathan Rosen in 1935. • In 1964 Bell published what for many has become the single most important theoretical paper in physics to appear since 1945; it was entitled On the Einstein Podolsky Rosen Paradox. • In 1964,John Bell showed that the predictions of quantum mechanics in the EPR thought experiment are significantly different from the predictions of a very broad class of hidden variable theories (the local hidden variable theories). Definition of entangled state A pure state of a pair of quantum systems is called entangled if it is unfactorizable. Applications : ・Quantum information and quantum computer (entanglement of qubits) ・Condensed matter physics (search for new order parameters) Divide a given quantum system into two parts A and B. Then the total Hilbert space becomes factorized Htotal=HA× HB Entanglement is a property of a state, not of Hamiltonian. Non-separable quantum state (entangled state): ρtotal ≠ ρA ×ρB Superposition Spin up Spin down Superposition • Superposition = Action at a distance • Action at a distance = Contradiction with relativity! If the particles have predefined values – there is no "telepathy" and everything is fine If the particles go off in superposition - has "telepathy" in conflict with relativity EPR experiment Spin x Stern Gerlach P up=1/2 x P donw=1/2 EPR experiment Spin x Stern Gerlach x Turning the magnets by an angle : P =Cos2(2) x P =1-Cos2(2) EPR experiment EPR system: x x x x • The two particles’ spin is always correlated (opposite) Measure of Entanglement Two particles of spin 1/2 AB Density matrix * AB ( y y ) AB ( y y ) Pauli matrix 0 i y i 0 M AB AB M m ' j ' j i ' 2 i Concurrence – measure of entanglement CAB max{1 2 3 4 ,0} W. K. Wootters, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 2245 (1998) Measure of Entanglement For the maximally entangled states, the concurrence is C=1, while for the separable states C=0. Dipolar coupling spin system and concurrence between nuclear spins 1/2 H0 r θ and ϕ are the spherical coordinates of the vector r connecting the nuclei in a coordinate system with the z-axis along the external magnetic field, H₀ Hamiltonian of dipolar coupling spin system H=Hz+Hdd where the Hamiltonian Hz describes the Zeeman interaction between the nuclear spins and external magnetic field and Hdd is the Hamiltonian of dipolar interactions In the thermodynamic equilibrium the considered system is described by the density matrix ρ=exp (-H/kBT)/Z where Z is the partial function, kB is the Boltzmann constant, and T is the temperature. Entanglement in system of two dipolar coupling spins GS (concurrence between nuclear spins ½) One excitation We examine dependence of the concurrence, C, between states of the two spins 1/2 on the magnetic field strength and its direction, dipolar coupling constant, and temperature. The results of the numerical calculation show that concurrence reaches its maximum at the case of θ=π/2 and ϕ=0 and we will consider this case below. G. B. Furman, V. M. Meerovich, and V. L.

The four-coordinated copper ion site, EFG is highly asymmetric (η≥0.92) while the five-coordinated copper ion site, EFG is nearly axially symmetric (η=0.14) [1]. 1. M. Mali, D. Brinkmann, L.

With a decrease of temperature below a critical value the concurrence monotonically increases till a limiting value. The critical temperature and limiting value are determined by a ratio of the Zeeman and quadrupole coupling energies, α/β. C The calculation for ⁶³Cu in the five-coordinated copper ion site of YBa₂Cu₃O7-δ at α/β=1, η=0.14 and eQqzz= 62.8 MHz, gives that the concurrence appears at β=0.6 .

Blue dotted line is ( -M/1.9 ) The concurrence is well fitted by a linear dependence on the magnetization in the temperature and magnetic field range up to a deviation of the magnetization from Curie's law and, following, the magnetization can be used as an entanglement witness for such systems An important measure is the entanglement entropy Definition of entanglement entropy Divide a given quantum system into two parts A and B. Then the total Hilbert space becomes factorized H tot H A H B . We define the reduced density matrix A for A by A TrB tot , taking trace over the Hilbert space of B . Now the entanglement entropy S A is defined by the von Neumann entropy S A Tr A A log A . Thus the entanglement entropy (E.E.) measures how A and B are entangled quantum mechanically. (1) E.E. is the entropy for an observer who is only accessible to the subsystem A and not to B. (2) E.E. is a sort of a `non-local version of correlation functions’. (3) E.E. is proportional to the degrees of freedom. It is non-vanishing even at zero temperature. 0.2 E 0.15 0.1 0.05 0 0 3 2 1 1 2 3 0 E C 0.14 0.275 0.12 0.25 0.225 0.1 0.2 0.08 0.175 0.06 0.15 0.04 0.125 0.02 2 4 6 8 2 4 6 8 Conclusions 1. We study entanglement between quantum states of multi level spin system of a single particle: a special superposition (entanglement) existing in the system of two non-separate subsystems. 2. It was shown that entanglement is achieved by applying a magnetic field to a single particle at low temperature ( 5 mK). 3. The numerical calculation revealed the coincidence between magnetization and concurrence. As a result, the magnetization can be used as an entanglement witness for such systems.
